The queen regent of Westeros confirmed that she is pregnant with her second child.
Lena Headey, 41, made known to the public that her baby will be born this summer. However, she did not give out any more details, including who the father of the child is.
In her statement in People, Headey said that she wants her privacy that she recently lost due to paparazzi to be retained. The British actress is asking that the media respect her privacy and let her enjoy the moment.
Headey has a four-year-old son with her ex-husband Peter Loughran. The two split up in 2012 after a marriage of five years; and a year later, they finally negotiated a divorce after an unpleasant dispute over money.
On the other hand, Headey has been seen out with Pedro Pascal, her co-star in "Game of Thrones" who plays the role of Oberyn Martell. This fuels assumptions and rumors that the two are a couple.
In 2014 at the Reddit Q&A, Pascal opened up about his friendship with Headey. However, he had a hard time dismissing the rumors that were going on about as he expressed his admiration he has for the co-star.
"Lena is one of my favorite persons. And she is so funny and so smart, such a good person, a good friend and a good mother," Pascal said. "I think everyone on that set and anyone who comes in contact with her develops an instant crush."
The two never confirmed if there is romance between them. There is no suggestion that Pascal is the father of the baby Headey is carrying now as well.
According to Just Jared, speculation on Headey's pregnancy started a few weeks after she was spotted out in LA with an apparent baby bump.
